Changing/Private

Apologies for my facebook post it was not intended or directed to/at anyone of the 1,000 people I am friends with on fb. Truly and honestly! but after 1,000 updates daily I have better things to do and it was mostly for me to get things done and not be a spy. just easier that way

On another note I am changing our blogger address- it will be lyleandbritt.blogspot.com

And I am going to put us private, it’s just that time I guess! Just email me your email address. My email is britty.whit@gmail.com

Love you all!

GOOD BYE FB






























Yes I did it, I deactivated my account (which means I’ll be back) but this semester I am taking 18 Credits, working and need to have a life! Besides the overwhelming ridiculously status updates on fb- telling the world you hate, are sick, love etc more than once a day is repulsive. I seriously got to the point I wanted to say 80% of the world does not care and the other 20% are pretending. Sadly I have had a few withdrawals but I am managing my time and man you should see how much I get done, not wasting on who had fun on their vacation,or where they are.. ok my tangent is done!! LOVE LIFE.

If I offended you/hurt your feelings in anyway I am sorry.

13 Reasons Why













This Book will make you cry, cry and keep crying

It is the most depressing book you will ever read

By far- however I love this book, it opens your eyes

Makes you realize that your words and actions can Make or literally break someone’s life. Yes you know that She has committed suicide before you even start reading But going through what this teenage girl goes through it breaks Your heart just wishing someone would have asked Genuinely “how are you? I care” It really makes you take a Step back and try to say and really care about everyone that You come in contact with because-

Not all scars show not all wounds heal
Sometimes you can't always see the pain someone feels.

Before Hannah Baker committed suicide, she left behind a message for her classmates. She made a series of tapes -- thirteen stories about and for thirteen people -- about the reasons why she decided to take her own life. Clay Jensen was one of those people. When the shoebox full of tapes arrives on his doorstep one day, two weeks after Hannah's death, he has no idea that his life was about to change. One of the amazing things about this book is that the story is both fairly straightforward yet simultaneously incredibly complex. It's a simple tale of a girl detailing the many ways in which she was hurt emotionally and physically by her peers. It's a simple tale of a boy's reaction -- a boy who happened to have a major crush on her -- to those tapes. Yet, in chronicling the "snowball effect" of little things that lead to Hannah's choice to take her life, Asher weaves a beautiful, intricate web of stories. One of the things that hit me most powerfully while reading this book was that nothing we do is without consequences. Someone, somewhere, is going to react to every little thing we do, either for good or bad. And that was the case in Hannah's life. Little things -- things that teens wouldn't think were any real "big deal" -- contributed to other things which lead to other things, eventually ending up in Hannah's death.

WHEN I GROW UP....



It feels like yesterday, I was sitting in this chair an only child (Jk I love my sisters) and….Life was easy- Lyle and I are entering our last year at USU!!

We will see where life takes us from there!

In the words of Mother Teresa

Life is an opportunity, benefit from it. Life is a beauty, admire it. Life is a dream, realize it. Life is a challenge, meet it. Life is a duty, complete it. Life is a game, play it. Life is a promise, fulfill it. Life is sorrow, overcome it. Life is a song, sing it. Life is a struggle, accept it. Life is a tragedy, confront it. Life is an adventure, dare it. Life is luck, make it. Life is life, fight for it.
